James Winfield
Snowsports fanatic with a passion for sharing the mountains with like-minded people. I have been instructing and guiding around the world for over 30 winters and this will be my 15th in Niseko. I’d love to help you experience the best powder, improve your skills or capture the moment for posterity.
As for many, I first came to Hokkaido for the mythical powder snow, but have stayed for the wild nature, welcoming culture and delicious food.
